Seven Nation Army

Chords & Lyrics, etc. · v1

                  Em               G                                 Em                   G              C    B C   B
I'm gonna fight 'em off    A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off    Taking their time right behind my back
             Em               G            C                     B           Em   G   C   B
And I'm talking to myself at night    Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind    Behind a cigarette
            G                                           A
And a message coming from my eyes says leave it alone

 
Instrumental Chorus: Em G C B x4.   G   A

Interlude: Em G C B x4


Don't wanna hear about it    Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it    From the Queen of England to the hounds of Hell
And if I catch it coming back my way    I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear    But that's what I'll do
And a feeling coming from my bones says find a home

Solo:   Em G C B x8.   G   A
 
Interlude:  Em G C B x4


I'm goin' to Wichita    Far from this opera, forever more
I'm gonna work the straw    Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding and I'm bleeding and I'm bleeding    Right before the Lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me    And I will sing no more
And the stains coming from my blood tell me go back home

Instrumental Chorus: Em G C B x4.   Em
